Book Review: Collateral Damage

From The Back:

They thought they left the fight behind on the battlefield.
But their greatest struggles are just beginning.
Honourably discharged from the Army after an explosion nearly killed her, former military psychiatrist Brooke Adams has set up shop to help others, but her days of helping military personnel are over. She's got her own battles to fight from her time overseas, and she's not equipped to take on more.

Former Army Special Ops Sergeant First Class Asher James could handle anything that war sent his way. The only thing that scares him now is sleep. As the shadows close in, the nightmares begin.

Finally convinced that he needs help, Asher makes an appointment with a counsellor. When he arrives at her office, she isn't there--but a dead body is. When it becomes clear that Brooke was the real target of the attack--and that her secrets go even deeper than his own--Asher vows to protect her no matter what.

My Reflections:
When I saw Lynette Eason had a new series out I was like, "yes please!" She is one of my favourite authors who is consistently pumping out some of my favourite novels. 
Collateral Damage in the "Danger Never Sleeps" series is action-packed adrenaline surging read, you can expect danger, murder and corruption and even some romance is thrown into this whirlwind tale. 

Her story shines light and hope in the darkness while compelling her readers to dig deeper into some tough topics. As a fellow PTSD survivor, I found that she portrayed the very difficult facets of this diagnosis in a very realistic manner. I loved how Eason was able to bring such hope all the while taking her readers on a rollercoaster of events. I was very much engaged from the first page right up to the last.

Lynette Eason has certainly done her research, it is evident thought the novel that she has a very good concept of the inner workings of the justice system and the supporting fields. The plot is well thought out and seamless. I am so eager to read book two "Acceptable Risk" Well Done Lynnette Eason!

Book Review: Code Of Valor

From The Back:

She's living proof that what you don't know could kill you
What Detective Brady St. John really needs is a relaxing vacation. Unfortunately, just as the sun is setting on his second day at a friend's cabin on Lake Henley, he hears a scream and races to rescue a woman from her would-be killer. When the killer escapes only to return to finish the job, Brady vows to utilize all of his many resources to keep her safe--and catch those who would see her dead.

Financial crimes investigator Emily Chastain doesn't trust many people. And even though she's trying to cooperate with the detective who saved her life, there are some things she doesn't know--and some things you just don't share with a stranger. Little does she suspect that what she doesn't know just might get them both killed.

My Reflections:

Get ready for the adrenaline to stream through your veins. This book is full on from page one to 327. I Love that all the books intertwine with each other, bringing a cohesive blend to this series. This being book number 3 in the Blue Justice storyline, and every bit as good as the other two. I would highly recommend that you go out and start with book one, "Oath of Honour" then continue on to book two "Called to Protect." You seriously will not regret it!

The characters in all these books will become like family for the short time you are engaged in their lives, I say short because you will most likely devour the books so rapidly that you literally want to write Lynette Eason and beg her to hurry up on the next installment! 

I really enjoyed the intense bond Emily Chastain and Detective Brady St. John share, it happens rapidly, and though I'm sure it must be against some law enforcement rule, it works well for this fast-paced novel. This does seem to be a pattern for Brady, his family cautions him, along with close friends, but he dives head first and falls hard while maintaining a mostly professional distance..umm until he kisses her. Ok, so there you have it though this is not a realistic storyline I loved it, and want more! 

If you are looking for a fantastic Romantic suspense look no farther, this series is it. Now, let's hope Lynette Eason hurries up and releases book 4.
